02:09 <Schism> Hmm. Aloy is now in Genshin Impact.
02:32 <PinkieShy> I'm so happy :D
02:33 <PinkieShy> Was able to get a better deal on siriusxm than what i was going ot pay next month
02:34 <PinkieShy> I was in a moment of panic last night as i was like 5 minutes away from being charged $30 i dind't have for a plan i was meaning to talk with them about.. Switched to a $17 plan and called today and was able to get on a $5 deal they have going on :D
02:34 <PinkieShy> So getting a partial refund for what i did last night.

03:36 * Schism decides to take her tit-tacs a bit earlier than usual.
03:36 <Schism> Also, excellent, PinkieShy!
03:40 * Ali noms on Schism ear
03:40 * Ali shows Schism two Tiamat cards
03:42 <Schism> Shiny!
03:43 <Ali> Got them and three other of the legendary dragons in this set
03:43 <Schism> Quite the draw, that.
03:45 * Ali nod nods and curls into Schism, they've added a lot of dragons and dragon tribal gets pretty stupid
03:45 <Ali> And Tiamet, when you cast him, allows you to fetch 5 dragons from your deck to hand.
03:45 <Schism> Have heard it's rather silly, but that is Forgotten Realms.
03:45 <Schism> Her!
03:46 <Schism> Five-headed mother of dragons.
03:46 <Ali> Ok, didn't know that
03:46 <Ali> But either way, you can pull 5 strong ass dragons from your deck to hand, and in commander, that's pretty silly
03:47 <Schism> Yup. 'course, it's omnicolour.
03:47 <Ali> Well what's stupid is the dragon commander, makes dragons cheaper to cast
03:48 <Ali> So you can drop a 4 mana dragon on turn 3, or sooner if you get lucky with ramp
03:59 <Schism> Also, I should note that Tiamat is only the mother of the Chromatic dragons. Which are Usually Evil.
04:07 <Amelia> good (almost) afternoon, ponies
04:07 <Schism> Harlo from the other side of the world.
04:08 * Schism watches the Habs lose a lot of fans. And it's not hard to see why...

06:23 <Schism> Evening. *erfs*
06:24 * ConfusionRift waves.
06:26 <Schism> One of those nights when my digestive system doesn't want to work properly. Fun, fun, fuuuun.
06:27 <Ali> tummy troubles suck
06:27 * Ali rubs Schism belly
06:27 * Schism will be fine. She hugs the Ali, though.
06:27 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, that sucks.
06:28 * ConfusionRift lightly huggles Schism and Ali.
06:28 * Ali licks ConfusionRift nosie
06:29 <ConfusionRift> :P
06:30 <Schism> People are a tad upset at the Habs tonight.
06:33 <Finwe> Good morning, everypony!
06:33 <ConfusionRift> RAdm. Finwe. (salutes)
06:33 <Schism> rAdm. Finwe.
06:33 <Finwe> Mlles Ali, Amelia, Schism and Surreal_Nightmares; Messrs Cepheid, Lumindia, PinkieShy and AppleDash; Lt Cdr ConfusionRift, Capt Koopz.
06:34 <Finwe> o7
06:34 * Schism doffs her cup of ginger turmeric tisane.
06:34 * Finwe plans the route for today's 40 km hike.
06:36 * Finwe grabs Schism by shoulders and shakes her.
06:37 <Finwe> I just found out that I have ginger tea, but I've never made a single cup. Why?
06:37 * Schism wobbles. "Whaaaat?" She also blinks. "Because you didn't feel like it?"
06:37 <Finwe> The bag was forgotten in the back of the cupboard. :/
06:38 <Schism> Now's as good a time as any to make a cup!
06:38 <Finwe> But now that I actively know that I have ginger tea, I might even feel like it.
06:42 * Ali tried sweet tea a week ago, still can't get that awful taste out of her mouth
06:43 <Schism> Some sweet tea is okay! Some is just 90% sugar by volume.
06:43 <Finwe> I never put sugar into tea.
06:43 <Finwe> Milk sometimes, if it's black tea.
06:43 <Schism> One moment years ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns/comments/opz75c/probably_my_first_wait_a_second_moment/
06:44 <Finwe> Green tea requires no additives.
06:44 <Finwe> Neither does white.
06:44 <ConfusionRift> Ah, plant flavored water. Or as Schism just said, watered down sugar water... with light earthy taste. :P
06:46 * Schism notes, "This, however, would be nice -- tea with honey, from the bees."
06:49 <Ali> Whenever you can brew it?
06:54 <Finwe> Whenever you have hot water and tea leaves at hoof.
06:54 <Schism> Ali: Indeed. o3o
06:54 <Finwe> A teapot would also be nice. o3o
06:55 * Ali think Finwe missed the refference
06:55 <Schism> And some codfish oil, for my chest, poured from a crystal cruet.
06:56 <Ali> Eeyup~
07:10 * Finwe noms on Ali's tail, there's no danger of missing the reference there.

07:11 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Celestia and Luna in: Tail Nomming
07:25 * Schism hums. "So I do fill this." Unfortunately it's a 40A, and her band size is 42. Bleh.
07:26 <Finwe> Is that the circumference in inches?
07:27 <Schism> Indeed.
07:27 <Finwe> I'm 37" around chest and 28.5" around waist.
07:28 <Schism> The midpoint of the sternum, typically. And ah, somewhat smaller than I. Which is understandable!
07:28 * Ali boops Finwe as that was bra sizes
07:29 * Finwe boobs Ali, as that was bra sizes. o3o
07:29 <Schism> Waist is... about 34"? Hrm. I'm fairly certain I'm not measuring accurately.
07:33 <Finwe> And hip 38.5"-
07:35 <Schism> 42" on the hips as well now. So not hourglass, to be sure, but there's enough variance there.
07:36 <Finwe> Given that I'm measuring it at the right place.
07:40 * Schism contemplates a peanut butter sandwich.
07:41 * Schism further contemplates a bowl of ramen instead. She has lots of leftover pizza, too...
07:42 <Schism> The black bean ramen seems like a good choice. Chilled before I add the sauce.
07:45 * Finwe heeds the old Tibetan proverb.
07:45 <Finwe> "Always go to toilet before going on a long hike."
07:49 <Ali> Else bushes will be your next visit
07:53 * Finwe also heeds old scout wisdom.
07:53 <ConfusionRift> And hope it's not poison ivy or the similar.
07:53 <Finwe> "Chocolate has a good energy to weight ratio."
07:54 <Finwe> ConfusionRift: There's no poison ivy in Europe.
07:54 <Schism> It does. Of course, the militaries had to make chocolate taste less delicious to keep the troops from nomming upon emergency rations.
07:54 <ConfusionRift> "-or the similar."
07:55 <Finwe> There are no plants in Finland that have any kind of contact poison.
07:55 <Finwe> Nettles come the closes, I guess.
07:55 <Finwe> *closest
07:56 <Finwe> We do have one snake species that is venomous.
07:56 * Ali hisses at Finwe
07:56 <Finwe> And some poisonous plants, like lily-of-the-valley.
07:57 * Finwe stares at Ali.
07:57 <Finwe> Whence this hissing?

18:28 <Ali> Yikes, these IR2 miners eat 500kW of power each

19:29 <Lumindia> Schism: I'm reminded of that news anchor that complained about twitch existing
19:29 <Lumindia> You have an entire channel dedicated to golf, shut your mouth
19:29 <Schism> Basically, the Cleveland baseball team, formerly the Indians, changed their name on the grounds that, yanno, maybe thit's not a good look to have a racist stereotype as your name and logo in today's day and age.
19:30 <Schism> it's*
19:32 <Ali> Even though the name it was using was allowed by the tribe
19:32 <Schism> Hm, I hadn't known that tidbit.
19:32 <Ali> But you know, lets ignore history to stop the EEEEEs
19:32 <Ali> So technically, the team names were never 'racist'
19:32 <Schism> Well, the Guardians are a fine name anyway, and hey, if it's causing continual confusion.

19:39 * Ali chews on Shadowed tail
19:39 <Cepheid> I like how as we flop around, we leave red stuff all over the areas, presumably blood. But in water, we shed nothing, the water remains pure. Carrion's weird man.

19:47 <Schism> I always kinda liked that as an anti-twinking mechanism.
19:51 <Shadowed> Yeah, but level 10 is too early for disobedience.
19:52 <Schism> But... the Zephyr Badge should stop that...

19:52 <Schism> Oh, and have fun with Gym #3!
19:52 <Shadowed> Whitney is not that bad.
19:53 <Shadowed> There is an early move that makes her a joke.
19:53 <Shadowed> Sand Attack.
19:53 <Shadowed> If Rollout misses the damage resets.

20:46 * Schism looks at the last few remaining slices of pizza. "I don't know why I bother ordering takeout. I never actually get to eat much of it." She decides she's not going to in the future -- or if she does, she'll order enough for her, and let her brother just choke on ramen or something.
20:49 <Cepheid> Usually when I order a pizza, I just order a small one because I'll eat the whole danged thing, and it's not too much for me.
20:49 <Schism> Going to be doing something like that from here on.
20:50 <Schism> Though even a smol might be a bit much for my current stomach.
20:52 * Schism randomly wonders how Bugsy ever got to be a gym leader. Scyther, okay, but Metapod and Kakuna?
20:54 <Ali> Well it was gen two
20:54 <Ali> I mean they could've given him a ledyba, but that's just about as bad as the two cacoon mons
20:55 <Schism> But... but why not Butterfree and Beedrill?
20:55 <Schism> (This image still amuses me. https://i.redd.it/ksqipg7v9e001.png )
20:56 <Ali> Maybe they thought that would be too hard for the second gym?
20:56 <Ali> I mean do you remember that Butterfree in Gen One that was before the thrid gym? It wrecks
20:56 <Schism> Well... okay, that's true.
20:57 <Dranae> Because Beedrill and Butterfree, at the level you fight Bugsy, would be p r e t t y rough.
20:57 <Dranae> 14-16 if memory serves.
20:58 <Schism> Okay, Butterfree, I'll grant you. But Beedrill?
20:58 <Dranae> Given that they evolve at 15? That'd be a level 15 Beedrill, Butterfree, and Scyther.
20:58 <Dranae> At least I think it's 15
20:58 <Schism> No, Beedrill and Butterfree evolve at 10.
20:59 <Dranae> Ah, right. It's been a literal decade and more since last I played one, forgive the error.
20:59 <Dranae> Still, pretty sure they introduced some unique move to Beedrill in G/S
20:59 <Ali> Not really
20:59 <Ali> It still had twineedle
21:00 <Ali> And butterfree has the spores along with confusion
21:00 <Schism> No worries. The confusion is understandable, because most Pokemon do take longer to evolve: the Weedle & Kakuna lines are an exception. Early game breadwinners, especially Butterfree (as long as the RNG doesn't cheat on recovering from ailments).
21:00 <Dranae> Twinneedle? Though that may have been too high-level for normal Beedrills of that level. I know Pin Missile would have been, but others can also learn Pin Missile (like Jolteon, I think?)
21:00 <Ali> Jolteon can learn Pin Missle, but its effectively jank due to its low attack stat

21:01 <Ali> Used to learn Bite
21:01 <Schism> TwinNeedle at 20, Pin Missile at 30 (35 in Gen2).
21:01 <Dranae> It'd be pretty rough
21:01 <Ali> So it only had Poison Sting and Fury Attack then
21:01 <Dranae> ugh
21:01 <Dranae> Old Fury Attack.
21:01 <Schism> Beedrill also has Fury Attack and Focus Energy, which is okay. And yeah, Poison Sting.
21:01 <Dranae> Such a bad 'good' attack
21:01 <Ali> CRIT DEATH
21:02 <Ali> Schism, FE and Fury attack under Gen 2 rules would suck
21:02 <Dranae> Regardless...

21:02 <Dranae> Let's remember one last critical element, everypony.
21:02 <Schism> It woooould, yeah.
21:02 <Dranae> Gym Leaders fight you at the power level you are when you 'arrive'.
21:02 <Ali> Though not sure FE had the gen one bug
21:02 <Dranae> Bugsy probably has some far stronger Pokemon to throw out against more experienced Trainers.
21:03 * Schism gets a call from shorts kid, she goes out to fight him again, gets stomped by a level 70 Charizard.
21:03 <Dranae> I just googled it. Oh sweet Jesus he has some terrifying ones.
21:04 <Dranae> Toxic/Power Split Shuckle, level 50.
21:04 <Schism> Hmm, rematch in HG/SS is...
21:04 <Schism> Impressive.
21:04 <Dranae> Yeah his rematch is... quite solid
21:05 <Schism> Shedinja of course.
21:05 <Dranae> Shedinja is one of my favorites from G/S
21:05 <Dranae> Which is weird because I didn't really like G/S very much overall.
21:05 <Schism> Shedinja was first released in RSE, though.
21:06 <Ali> The problem with Shedinja
21:06 *** Joins: Apple_Jack (Prius@Pony-telamf.ipv6.telus.net)
21:06 <Ali> is it hated entry hazards
21:06 <Ali> Or Hail/Sandstorm
21:06 <Dranae> I... Don't think so?
21:06 <Dranae> Was it?
21:06 <Ali> Yeah, its not immune to them
21:06 <Dranae> Huh, it is G3.
21:06 <Dranae> welp
21:06 <Dranae> Think the last time I played G2/G3 was uhhh
21:06 <Ali> There was this thing in one game
21:06 <Dranae> Prooooobably closer to 20 years ago
21:06 <Ali> That made you knock out 6 Shedinja's in one turn
21:07 <Dranae> :(
21:07 <Dranae> yeah
21:07 <Dranae> almost 20 years ago now
21:07 <Dranae> why am I old
21:07 <Schism> hey, hey dranae
21:08 <Schism> Half-Life is 23 years old. o3o
21:08 <Dranae> never was much into HL
21:08 <Schism> And Final Fantasy 10 turned 20 years old about a week ago.
21:08 <Dranae> But what if I told you that the best Final Fantasy I ever played
21:08 <Dranae> Is almost 25 years old
21:09 <Dranae> June 20 of next year is its 25th anni
21:09 <Schism> I'd applaud you on your appreciation for the tale of Ivalice.
21:09 <Dranae> Here's a hint
21:10 <Dranae> 'Sword in hand, a warrior clutches stone to breast. In sword etched he his fading memories, in stone, his tempered skill. By sword attested, by stone revealed. Their tale can now be told!'
21:10 <Dranae> ugh and now I'm actually tearing up
21:10 * Schism unequips Gafgarion's everything, and then steals his Blood Sword.
21:10 * Dranae cackles.
21:10 <Dranae> Schism, when I did FF14's Return To Ivalice
21:11 <Dranae> I did it during Shadowbringers
21:11 <Dranae> because I'm not one for prog raiding and also I was too poor to afford the xpac when it was new
21:11 <Schism> So T.G. Cid wasn't _quite_ as much of a block for you.
21:11 <Dranae> The story very close to broke me.
21:11 <Schism> <3
21:11 <Dranae> I was a sobbing, bawling mess.
21:11 <Schism> Here, relax and open up your heart with this bottle of wine and loaf of bacon bread.
21:12 <Schism> T'was indeed a fantastic tale.
21:12 <Dranae> Although one of my FC mates was laughing the whole time during the fight with Argath
21:12 <Dranae> because I was so angry that I ran out of words and just started screaming in chat
21:13 <Dranae> Have I mentioned that I hate Argath so badly that, as a young man, I actually threw up because of my anger toward him?
21:13 <Dranae> I was fifteen
21:13 <Schism> It was, undoubtedly, a delight to finally punch him in the face. :3
21:13 <Dranae> But after much emotion (and sidequesting)
21:14 <Dranae> I finally got to the last raid and oh my god it just
21:14 <Dranae> I was crying from basically the start.
21:14 <Dranae> Seeing all my old comrades, all the references to old skill names (Crush Accessory summoning 'Icewolf' when its original name was Icewolf Bite, for example)
21:15 <Dranae> And then the end fight, when the shield is crumbling
21:15 <Dranae> And he just
21:15 <Dranae> Shows Up.
21:15 <Dranae> That was it for me, I put down my controller and just sobbed through the rest of it.
21:15 * Schism hugs the Dranae.
21:16 <Dranae> It was almost twenty five years of emotional closure
21:17 <Schism> Downside to doing it during ShB: https://reallifecomics.com/comic.php?comic=september-21-2020
21:18 <Schism> Also, no doubt...!
21:18 <Dranae> I also didn't struggle during a specific side quest...
21:18 <Dranae> kewh.
21:18 <Dranae> Kweh*
21:18 <Schism> Those red chocobos. Certainly not.
21:19 *** Quits: Taoki (MirceaKitsu@Pony-sme.fv9.240.188.IP) (Quit: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/mircea/)
21:19 <Schism> You should've seen it when the raid first came out. SO MANY RED CHOCOBOS in one place, Choco Meteors were landing everywhere at once.
21:20 <Schism> Poor Mae. She was so hyped for the Agrias set. https://reallifecomics.com/comic.php?comic=september-30-2020
21:20 *** Joins: Taoki (MirceaKitsu@Pony-sme.fv9.240.188.IP)
21:22 <Dranae> I wanted Ramza's (unsurprising, I know)

21:22 <Dranae> I dont' think I did too badly, though.
21:23 <Dranae> My fashion game's pretty on-point.
21:23 <Schism> Yea, that's pretty great.
21:25 * Schism sneeeeeeeze...
21:26 * Dranae is sad that Schism is allergic to griffin.
21:27 * Dranae also snuggles into Schism more, because he is part cat, and that is his job.
21:27 * Schism is not allergic. She's just sneezy right now for some reason.
21:27 * Lumindia rolls over to Dranae, boops their beak gently
21:28 * Dranae hugs Lumindia
21:28 <Dranae> Righto
21:28 <Dranae> Time to fire up a game I haven't played in forever so I can get hard carried through a fight
21:28 <Schism> I think my MCH gear remains pretty decent.
21:28 <Dranae> Ewww, MCH.
21:29 <Schism> Well, okay, MCH/BRD/DNC, but the latter two aren't up to that point.
21:29 <Dranae> ew and ew
21:29 <Schism> True Griffin Hat, Skallic Jacket, Torrent Tights, Torrent Boots.
21:29 * Dranae points to the only good classes. GNB, RDM
21:30 <Schism> My RDM is still glam'd for the Draconic Robe of Buttwings.
21:30 <Schism> Dreadwyrm*
21:31 <Dranae> But for real, when they added GNB, I was like
21:31 <Dranae> 'Oh hey finally I can quit being RDM
21:31 <Dranae> '
21:31 <Schism> GNB is the only tank class I haven't really played at _all_...
21:31 <Dranae> Oh man, it's fun.
21:31 <Dranae> And flashyu.
21:31 <Schism> WAR is flashy!
21:32 <Lumindia> Schism: I have five RDM glams
21:32 <Schism> Yes, but you're RDM main.

21:34 <Schism> You do so love that hat.
21:34 <Lumindia> you gotta have a fancy hat
21:34 <Lumindia> :V
21:34 <Lumindia> if you're not wearing a fancy hat as RDM,a re you even playing the job correctly?
21:34 <Schism> I have flowers in my hair, that's enough.
21:35 <Lumindia> https://i.imgur.com/9rMuBl9.png https://i.imgur.com/7ceCLwY.png
21:35 <Lumindia> my two healer glams
21:35 * Finwe scrunchymuzzles at Ali with a long lantecy.
21:35 <Finwe> *scrunch*
21:39 *** Quits: Apple_Jack (Prius@Pony-telamf.ipv6.telus.net) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
21:43 <Schism> Hmmmm.
21:43 <Schism> Should use my Squadron MGP rewards. o3o Later.
21:48 * Dranae sighs happily at the game he is playing.
21:48 <Dranae> I forgot how adorable babushkat is
21:50 <Schism> I'm here in the Saucer and a racer is petting his birb, saying, "Don't worry, they'll take care of you here," and I'm like, "They sure will. And have you tried the chocobo gold nuggets?"
22:00 * Dranae suddenly wants to watch the Monster Hunter movie, just to see how bad it is
22:00 <Schism> I've heard it's ... okay?
22:03 <Schism> Oh, it's classic Leap.

22:24 * Ali flops, after many factorio hours in IR2, she's FINALLY automating red/green science....
22:25 <Schism> Yaaaay!
22:28 * Dranae has just realized the exact sort of movie he needs to see.
22:28 <Dranae> Okay so
22:28 <Dranae> You know how Scott Pilgrim was a perfect superhero movie lampooning as a romcom
22:29 <Dranae> Complete with all the silly comicbook/video game stuff in it?
22:34 <Amelia> Good morning, ponies
22:35 * Shadowed thinks Dranae wants to watch Scott Pilgrim.
22:35 <Dranae> Okay maybe yes.
22:37 <Dranae> But imagine something as lampoony/campy/silly as Scott Pilgrim, but in the vein of all those modern John Wick-style movies.
22:37 <Dranae> You know. Equalizer, Nobody, Jason Bourne, Wick 1, 2, 3.
22:38 <Dranae> But lampooning them
22:39 <Schism> Sadly, Leslie Nielsen is no longer with us.
22:39 <Shadowed> The Expendables?
22:40 <Dranae> I was thinking Nic Cage, Schism
22:40 <Shadowed> Jack Black.
22:40 <Dranae> Shadowed, the Expendables is, like the A-Team, a lampoon of the idea, but not the kind of lampoon I want
22:40 <Dranae> Oh my god yes
22:41 <Shadowed> Considering how much plot armor the main characters have in those movies, do a chosen one narrative like Kung Fu Panda.
22:42 <Shadowed> Alternatively if we don't go that route, what was the ps2 game... Brutal Legend?
22:42 <Dranae> yes
22:43 * Shadowed would watch a Brutal Legend movie.
22:43 <Dranae> Same.
22:43 <Dranae> I've not played but five minutes and I would too.
22:43 <Dranae> But isn't that basically just Tenacious D and the Pick Of Destiny: The Sequel?
22:44 <Shadowed> Jack Black is a Roadie in Brutal Legend who gets Isekaied instead of normal band member.
22:49 <Dranae> That's hilarious.
22:50 * Shadowed watched a let's play of it a while back. I wasn't cool enough to know what a good game looks like when it was new.
22:59 *** Joins: Apple_Jack (Prius@Pony-telamf.ipv6.telus.net)
23:56 <Lumindia> Brutal Legend is an OK game with a KILLER soundtrack
23:58 * Schism randomly collects nutsacks.
